Last Monday, Marines returned to Imperial 00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:53.939 Beach after reinforcing the border wall in Cambo, 00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:57.199 tightening strands of barbed wire around notch 00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:00.879 posts. This operation, involving the addition 00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:04.180 of concertina wire, marked a significant military 00:04:04.180 --> 00:04:07.759 presence at the border. While the Marines completed 00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:11.439 their tasks, locals noted the impact of the taller 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:15.599 wall on migrants.

Raleigh, needing to 00:04:55.170 --> 00:04:58.410 match Brent Rooker's 17 home runs, initially 00:04:58.410 --> 00:05:02.149 struggled before switching batting stances. Both 00:05:02.149 --> 00:05:05.569 players ended with 17 homers, leading to a tiebreaker 00:05:05.569 --> 00:05:09.519 based on the longest home run.

Despite a decent record, they need multiple 00:06:20.209 --> 00:06:23.029 additions to enhance their chances for a deeper 00:06:23.029 --> 00:06:26.970 playoff run. As they prepare for a crucial 10 00:06:26.970 --> 00:06:29.569 -game road trip, the Padres aim to capitalize 00:06:29.569 --> 00:06:32.589 on their favorable schedule and improve their 00:06:32.589 --> 00:06:38.759 performance.

A middle school student 00:09:32.330 --> 00:09:35.450 from Ontario, Canada, has captured attention 00:09:35.450 --> 00:09:39.110 with his impressive take on the legendary Archimedes' 00:09:39.210 --> 00:09:43.289 death ray. Brendan Sinner, who is now 12 years 00:09:43.289 --> 00:09:46.370 old, was inspired by the ancient mathematician's 00:09:46.370 --> 00:09:50.230 idea of harnessing the sun's energy. He crafted 00:09:50.230 --> 00:09:53.110 a miniature version using a heat lamp and four 00:09:53.110 --> 00:09:56.269 concave mirrors, demonstrating that the concept 00:09:56.269 --> 00:10:00.029 could indeed work. His experiments showed increasing 00:10:00.029 --> 00:10:02.990 temperatures at targeted locations, suggesting 00:10:02.990 --> 00:10:05.490 that a larger -scale version could have been 00:10:05.490 --> 00:10:09.110 feasible in ancient times. While no archaeological 00:10:09.110 --> 00:10:12.730 evidence confirms its use, Saner believes the 00:10:12.730 --> 00:10:15.690 principle is certainly possible, highlighting 00:10:15.690 --> 00:10:22.240 the intrigue of Archimedes' inventions.
